Mobility of power-law and Carreau fluids through fibrous media

Mobility of power-law and Carreau fluids through fibrous media

The flow of generalized Newtonian fluids with a rate-dependent viscosity through fibrous media is studied, with a focus on developing relationships for evaluating the effective fluid mobility. Three methods are used here: (i) a numerical solution of the Cauchy momentum equation with the Carreau or p...
